INTEGRATED RECEIVER DECODERS

TT1260
MPEG-2/DVB (4:2:2)
Professional Single Channel Receiver
Contribution and distribution of video services requires decoding capability of premiere quality. The wide
variety of scenarios in which such receivers are used require that the receiver must be extremely flexible in
operation, and incorporate a large and sophisticated array of features. The TANDBERG Television TT1260
is a professional grade integrated receiver decoder, leading the field with a level of quality and large feature
range that make the unit the perfect choice for contribution, distribution and mobile applications.

The TT1260 is designed to decode MPEG-2 SD 4:2:2 video and present it for onward use at the highest
possible quality. Matching the high quality video capabilities, the TT1260 similarly supports all major
professional audio standards. This highly flexible unit offers a vast array of input interface options - allowing
the receiver to connect to almost every type of satellite, terrestrial, or telco network.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW BASE UNIT FEATURES

Flexibility
The TT1260 offers a vast variety of input interface options, making the
unit suitable for connecting to almost every type of network. Highlights
include support for the new DVB-S2 standard as well as legacy DVB-S
and DVB-DSNG satellite transmission standards. For connection to telco
networks, the receiver can also be fitted with G703 or IP inputs.
Secure Transmission
Security of content is all-important - something that is taken seriously by
the TT1260. The TT1260 supports all major encryption systems including
BISS 1 & E, RAS, Common Interface and TANDBERG Director V5 CA.
TT1260 – Common Interface (TT1260/CIBAS)
The Common Interface (CI) version can accept one CA module (CAM)
enabling the user to select the desired CA system and have the flexibility
to change the CA system at a later stage.
TT1260 – Common Interface, 48VDc (TT1260/CIBAS/48V)
Base unit as the TT1260/CIBAS but with 48Vdc power supply for telco
installations.
TT1260 - Director (TT1260/DIRBAS)
The TANDBERG Director version of the TT1260 enables a secure trans-
mission of valuable content with the added benefit of over-air control
reducing the need for local operators.

Low Cost of Operation Standard features for base units:

The TT1260 can be integrated into a TANDBERG Television Director V5 • Dual SDI output with embedded de-compressed audio and VBI.
control system - enabling large populations of receivers to be remotely
controlled over-air from a central location, simplifying the system control • Dual analog (PAL/NTSC) BNC outputs.
structure and reducing the need for costly on-site local operators. • Dual ASI transport stream outputs.
• Frame synchronization input.
Transfer of Private Data
• Remote control via SNMP or web page.
As well as providing video and audio capabilities, the TT1260 also
• Single alarm relay.
provides simultaneous carriage of additional data services. The TT1260
can receive several data formats including low-speed, high-speed and
high-speed over IP data.

Data Transfer
The transport stream is increasingly being used for transferring data for
applications such as telephony, Internet, non real-time video transfer or
price book download. The TT1260 can transfer data alongside the video
signals at up to 5 Mbit/s (2 Mbit/s for RS-4:2:2 data) and there is a choice
of data interface depending on the transfer rate required.
High Speed Data Output (TT1260/HWO/HSDATA)

Conditional Access
The TT1260 with DVB Common Interface can be used with all major
vendor security systems. Used with TANDBERG Television’s own highly
secure TANDBERG Director CA and control software, the operator has
complete management of a network of receivers.
